There is no need of exaggereting athletes height in body building. Infact noone does and never did. That's just a pretext to say Arnold pumped his height. Remember he was, barefoot, eye level with Jeff Bridges wearing sneakers. So he maybe he was never that giant in height, maybe 186 at night and 187 peak, but he never was under 186 until his forties. He lost a lot of height in the last years and that's ok. Furthermore Ferrigno was a legit 6'4 and Arnold was 2 inches shorter in ever picture with him. And taller than any other bodybuilding of his time. He edged out even on 6'1ers. So, Harold, canalize your hate into something else. You're done here.

15 years ago skiing at Sun Valley, Arnold was chatting at the top of the hill. I stood a couple feet away, without disturbing Arnold and friends. I asked 2 of my friends who was taller? They said Arnold...at least 2 inches.. I am 5'8 inches.
Peter 179cm said on 9/Nov/16
He was a weak 6'1 at his peak.He was always 3-4 inches shorter than 6'4 peak Ferrigno, but wore thick footwear in his movies to appear 6'1-6'1.5 in some of them(take Predator for example,he looked at least the same height as Carl Weathers who was no less than 6'1 back in the 80's).
Now he's most likely 5'10.5-5'11 anywhere in that range when standing upright.So basically he's shrunk 2 inches at 69 which is not uncommon.

Flint, your in my boat. I have him as a 6 footer when young. 5'10 is BS and so is 6'2.
Flint said on 8/Nov/16
Harold, your posts are brilliant and very funny. I agree that Arnold wasn't ever 6'1 1/2 barefoot and that bodybuilding runs along the same lines as wrestling. It dates back hundreds of years in the form of circus entertainment where exaggeration was all part of the recipe. But I think he was taller than many and so I'd guess that he was about 6'0 when young. At his age, shrinkage has taken a couple of inches off peak.

Peter 179cm said on 6/Nov/16
@ Dean That's only about 8cm difference,how exactly is that called dwarfing/towering?? DeNiro is actually no more than 170-171 these days,which again puts a present Arnie at around 179cm or 5'10.5.

Looks more than 8cm to me. Nevertheless it's one in the eye for all these people who'll put a peak Arnold at 5'10 and try to call him less these days.

Thanks, but how is Harold a fanboy? He's clearly not a fan of Schwarzenegger. I'm not one either, but at least I don't trash talk about him.
Justin said on 6/Nov/16
@Christian yeah just giving my opinion mate based on what I've observed from Arnies movies starting from Hercules in New York. I think the key measurement was made by Vince Basille giving Arnie 6ft1.5 plus the other observations I've made of him. I believe that measurement was accurate and that was when he was in his 20s so wouldn't have lost any height. Harold I don't know what Arnies fling with his housekeeper has to do with his height but everyone is entitled to their opinion

It's obvious Basile has no love for Arnold so why would he bother to upgrade him from Harold's BS 5'10 peek to 6'1.5??

I couldn't imagine Daniel Day Lewis being a better terminator than what Arnold portrayed. Lewis is an awesome actor one of the very best but
Annie sold more tickets at the box office.

Hey Harold how is your buddy Goodrum doing over at Getbig?

I was initially going to reply to Harold, but it's not worth it. If he wants to keep believing the delusion that Arnold is only 5ft10, then I'll let him. At the end of the day, he's going to be the laughingstock of Celebheights, not Justin, Dean or myself.
Harold said on 5/Nov/16
Oh, Christian, you're being unchristian in launching your attacks,
I have nothing but respect for Arnie. Nothing but respect. Because impregnating your wife and your maid on the same week in the same bed really displays character. Keeping it a secret from your family and the electorate who trusted you enough to vote for you truly confirms their trust. And I am not alone in my respect. Can you imagine how much Daniel Day-Lewis respects an actor of such great range as Schwarzenegger? A peer such as that? That profound respect from the entire movie industry explains the sheer number of Oscars Arnold has won and has displayed on his fireplace mantel. As to your definition of the man as 'one of the most respected bodybuilders,' yes, certainly, compared to Bertil Fox, the 3-time Mr. Universe who murdered his girlfriend and her mother, or Craig Titus, serving life in prison for murder, or Dennis Tinerino, 4-time Mr. Universe, who served time for pimping, or Craig Titus, who murdered his girlfriend, or...well, shall I go on? Yes, in that context, the wannabe six footer Arnie shines supreme. Truly, by comparison, a class act. Tell me, do you also go to Bill Cosby for dating advice? Hint: he doesn't lace their drinks with protein powder. I have no doubt you also greatly respect his lifetime accomplishments. ROTFL.
Justin said on 5/Nov/16
Also if you watch Pumping Iron theirs a scene at the start where Arnold walks into Golds Gym barefoot and shakes the hand of fellow bodybuilder Big Mike Katz and they appear the same height and he's listed 6ft1-2.
Justin said on 5/Nov/16
@ Harold I think if you look at Arnold's early movies such as Stay Hungry from 1976 when Arnold was 29 he looks a similar height to 6ft1.5 to 6ft2 Jeff Bridges and like in Pumping Iron he is barefoot in some scenes. Anything under 6ft1 peak doesn't sound right. I think Arnold now like Clint Eastwood has lost considerable height but you can't forget their peak heights
Harold said on 5/Nov/16
Justin, I promise that pro bodybuilding is no different than pro wrestling in terms of inflated heights. Pro bodybuilding and pro wrestling are similar in that they are not sports, per se, but exhibitions. And the money lies in the exaggeration. The lifters blatantly lying about their heights is part of kay fab. As is their silence on their own steroid use. They are just selling tickets. Whether they are also selling their souls along the way is for the audience to determine.
jervis said on 5/Nov/16
To be fair DeNiro is no more than 5ft7 these days and gets dwarfed by 5ft10 guys.Arnold looks about 4 inches taller putting him in the 5ft11 range. Arnold peak was around 6ft.05 too 6ft1 and now 5ft11 IMO.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Nov/16
I agree with Danimal's estimates for Arnold's peak.
firecracker said on 4/Nov/16
harold, you understand is full of fanboys here. people don't realize how tall is a legit (barefoot) 6'2"(188cm) 6'3"(190cm) 6'4"(193cm) and so on...

here a 20 y.o. schwarz. with claimed 5'10"(178cm) bill pearl: Click Here

Arnold looks 1 inch taller excluding the hair. SO ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER WAS in the 5'11"(180cm) range at his peak, the rest is pure fantasy for fanboys. Rob, update this profile, you know very well he wasn't 6'1.5"(187cm).

Christian-196.2cm (6ft5.25) said on 4/Nov/16
Harold, you're being ridiculous (no offense) Sure, Arnold wasn't quite 6ft1.5 peak, but to say that he was 5ft10 max? It's getting to the point where you're starting to launch personal attacks on not only Arnold but to anyone who disagrees with your absurd opinion. You even called the man pathetic at one point, and that same man is one of the most respected and acclaimed bodybuilders/actors in modern history. And you have no clear evidence that he ever wore lifts. Arnold at peak was around 185-186cm and currently anywhere from 180-182cm.
Harold said on 4/Nov/16
@Justin: Vince Basille also accuses Arnie of rape. Do you hold Basille's word to be true when it relates to Arnie's height but not to his habits? If Basille's word is credible to you, then you'd have to believe him in every regard. The fact is that pro bodybuilding, like pro wrestling, sells the product by fudging the figures. It's all about the money. Exaggeration sells. If Arnie had ever, in his life, been six one and one-half, his beloved cowboy boots (the equivalent of male high heels) would have made him six three or so. Did he ever, in his lifetime, appear six three plus? No. Never. You then might think, 'but Arnie would never lie about his height.' Really? Because he would hold strict to the truth with his noted personal integrity when it came to his height, but not when it came to hiding a secret family from his own wife and children?
Peter 179cm said on 4/Nov/16
@ Justin Maybe it was a morning measurement or at least earlier in the day,so about 6'1 flat in the 60's is definitely possible, and around 5'10.5 these days. I mean we're talking a 50-year gap,looong after his bodybuilding days.And since people believe Clint Eastwood has shrunk from nearly 6'4 to about 6'0 on a good day at 86 yrs old,then Arnie could be on the same level,more or less.Some people just have the genetic potential to lose a big amount of height throughout their life,while others are luckier and maintain it to a certain degree.

Dwarfing DeNiro in these pictures.
Dean said on 4/Nov/16
Harold, get your facts straight. Arnold's height and measurements had been recorded in magazines and competitions for many years before 'Pumping Iron' was even made. I'm sure you'll say these measurements were vastly exaggerated too (well, you'll have to really, in order to make your own argument work). If Arnold had never been a tall man then he would never have become known as such, simple as that. You'd have him billed as well below 6 foot even in his younger days, which would automatically - and greatly - downgrade every other bodybuilder of that period. So, what - Frank Zane was 5'6"? Nonsense, look at his body proportions. Franco Columbo was only 5'? I'm pretty sure that some bodybuilding measurements are slightly exaggerated, but I don't believe that height is one of them. There's no need. Many bodybuilders are short and always have been. It's the development of their bodies which is considered impressive, not their natural height. For whatever reason you hate Arnold. That's fine. We get it. Your choice. But until you have concrete proof of his height, you should stop raving so much and attacking everyone who has an opinion. That's all yours is too, whether you like it or not. An opinion.
Justin said on 3/Nov/16
I think if their was one sport where people have inflated heights and weights then it's the sport of wrestling. A example of this is when Kurt Angle started in the wwe/wwf he was billed as 6ft2 lol his actual height is around 5ft10. As much as I like wrestling I wish they gave real heights and weights but I guess that goes with the whole mystery of wrestling
Harold said on 3/Nov/16
The problem with 'peak height' as a category is it is, as we have seen not just with Arnie but with so many others, problematic in terms of accuracy. Perhaps 'billed height' would be an improvement as a category. My two cents.
kurtz said on 3/Nov/16
@ danimal my was a mistake only on his wife... but don't change anything. he is not reliable on his height, unless was meausured by god in "person" that was not the case.
Justin said on 3/Nov/16
I'm a massive Arnold fan and admit Arnie has lost height probably due to excessive lifting and weight training over the years maybe 5ft11.5 is about right for current height I agree with Rob. Peak height I believe he was between 6ft1-2 186 to 187cm seems about right. My evidence apart from his 187cm measurement but if you watch Pumping Iron he's bigger not only in size but height.
Danimal said on 2/Nov/16
Johan said on 24/Oct/16
Yeah he was never a legit 6'2", maybe was close if measuring straight out of bed.

A solid 6'1" at his peak and now around 5'11". A 2 inch loss.

He was 6'1.5"-6'1.75" at his peak and is about 5'10.25" today (over 3" height loss).

First of all, Bruno was universally known as being 5'10" (and even 5'11" at times) in his younger years. He was NEVER as low as 5'9", so way to go to chop off a full inch over what he was known to be in his youth.

Harold said on 2/Nov/16
@JamesC(not Cameron!): No one says, "oh, a friend of mine met him and he's really small." Small isn't up for debate. Height is. Because many eyewitnesses do say that he's shorter than advertised. Much shorter. As in Five nine or ten rather than six foot two, as he insisted, for decades. (Perhaps his psychological ailment of "Biggerexia" included height 'isues').

@Rick Rude and firecracker: I warn you, honesty, rather than blind hero worship, doesn't go far on this page. Idolatry has increased the man's size by five inches or so. Rick Rude, I think you are being kind and generous to speculate he was once actually six feet tall. firecracker, you are 100% correct and accurate to call b.s. on arnie's supposed 6'1.5" 'peak' (and even worse, his self-proclaimed insistence he was six foot two (pause for open laughter). The only thing more pathetic than a man with an admitted 50 plus pairs of cowboy boots are the fanboys who swallow his every lie hook, line, and sinker.

Without the cowboy boot and lifts, maybe five ten.

Maybe.

AlexItaly said on 1/Nov/16
I think it is not hard to SEE in his old movies (lets say until early 90ies) that he was 187-186 cm. tall
Not very tall, but tallish, appearing very tall with the right boots/shoes. Nowdays he is a tad under 183. Nothing strange, my father, who is the same age, was 183 and is now 180. He never weighted lifts and did anything that stressed his body so he is pretty youthful to be a 70 year old man but still he lost a few centimetres of height. I can easily accept Arnold lost about 5 centimetres, from 187 to 182.
firecracker said on 1/Nov/16
time runs but lies resist on this website. Arnold peak 6'1.5"(187cm) was a pure fake!!! he was in the 5'11"(180cm)range barefeet. Anything over 6ft (183cm) is a lie for his peak.
a young arnold with wrestler bruno sammartino: bit.ly/2ewLMTf

sammartino was 5'9"(175cm). don't joke to say sammartino was 6ft!!! arnold looks 1-2 inches taller than sammartino, but you can clearly see he was way far from a legit 6'2".

Stop with this comedy schwarzenegger-ferrigno overestimated heights. Stop. Rob, i expect serious changes on your website. (don't let me scream... come on rangers)

@JamesC(not Cameron)5"11' if no lifts
JamesC (not Cameron!!) said on 27/Oct/16
Absolute balls that Arnold is 5'9 or under. I'm 5'10" and met him at the talks he has done in Britain in the past couple of years. He was taller than me and much bulkier in build. And I'm not a skinny dude. With the build he has, if he was any shorter than me he would look like some kind of Warhammer dwarf. It's so easy for people to pipe up and say 'oh, a friend of mine met him and he's really small'. People are talking out of their backsides. I'd say the general opinion here is spot on. He used to be 6'1 and is now 5'11.
Peter 179cm said on 27/Oct/16
@ 172.4cm guy Yeah but did your friend wore shoes-or more specifically heels? I would take it with a grain of salt,most women don't even know how to compare height in the first place,they sometimes think a man's eyelevel or thereabouts is the top of his head...As crazy as it sounds,it happens.But back on topic,Arnold was probably no more than 182cm back in 2004 anyway.
Kurtz said on 26/Oct/16
Anyway Arnie is not reliable coz he said is 6ft 1 when meauserd in 2013 by his wife, that is exaggerated.
So he is not reliable as much as for his height peak.
172.4cm guy said on 24/Oct/16
Ok, I normally don't report things like this since it's just heresay, but it's not the first time I've been told it. Apparently Schwarzennager is not even 5'11" now...he's 5'9". A friend, who stands at 5'9.5" was swearing that when she met him, he stood just under her, with no shoes on. This was back in 2004. A few years ago, I also heard the same thing from a studio exec. Now I know this seems crazy, especially since Schwarzennager did seem like a 6'0"-ter in Pumping Iron, but I just wanted to throw this out there. If anyone else has stories like this, or actually met with him in person, I'll all ears!
Junior31 said on 24/Oct/16
You guys need to check out the amount and type of surgeries he has had. Your right. The average 70 year old will lose in inch or more but when you have had knee back and neck surgeries. Do yourself a favor and double that.

6'1 peak
Weak 5'10 today.
Jordan87 said on 24/Oct/16
He isn't Dave Prowse or Hulk Hogan. A Guy his age typically looses around 1"-1.5". He is around 5'10.5 nowadays so more or less he was 6'0 in his prime. Considerably Tall for a Bodybuilder.

I think Arnold has been refreshingly straightforward in his height claims. He's not saying he's 6'10" or something like that, but that he was almost 6'2" at one time and is now down to close to 6'. If you look at him next to Jesse Ventura in Predator, I think Arnold was indeed 6'1" or 6'2" at one time and maybe has lost an inch, as most people do by the time they get to his age...
Jim Hopper said on 23/Oct/16

@Harold: and the photo shows the YAWN (pathetic, isn't it?) YAWN dwarfed by the six foot one YAWN. Wait, let's hear it from the fanboys: it must be the result of what, deadlifts? Bench presses? A lifetime of 'fitness' (if you call 'fitness' being a steroid-gobbling bathing suit 'competitor' in which the quality of your tan is crucial for winning or YAWN 'fitness' routine results in two hip replacement surgeries, multiple shoulder surgeries, and open-heart surgery). Oh, that's right, the open-heart surgery in his 40's was because of 'genetics.' Well, the fact he was never even six foot tall, peak, is another result of genetics. Read 'em and weep, fanboys. Your idol is a liar.

You are about as hilarious as cancer and are a broken record.
The photo was taken on a slope for a start and at a terrible angle. If you scroll down on the same article there is a pic of both of them from same event stood side by side and there is an inch difference, 2 max.

I just saw a photo of my 2 bosses with Arnold in early late 80s/90s. They used to own a gym. One is 6', the other 6'2". No way in hell Arnold was 5'11" back then. Definitely between 6'1" and 6'2". Admittedly, his shoes are not visible in the picture. If his shoes were nornal, for sure at least 6'1" at peak.

@JimHopper

Actually, if "people see arnie in public and say he's 6-2"" then there wouldn't be the amount of speculation there is concerning his height. I'd say most people who see arnie in public say he is nowhere near six foot two, which is why his alleged and supposed and self-proclaimed height is a bone of contention. The only people I've ever heard of on this planet who proclaim Arnie six foot two are the man himself (who made a living exaggerating his physical dimensions) and an ex-bodybuilder from Canada who now lives in Australia. Two voices do not a consensus make...
Peter 179cm said on 5/Oct/16
Anyone between 183-185cm can measure atleast 186-187 range with big-soled dress shoes or boots on. MAX 185cm for Arnold in the 60's-70's era and 183-184cm in his 80's-90's acting career (barefoot estimates).As for now, the guy has looked anything between 177 and 182 depending on his posture and footwear ofcourse so no doubt he's lost a noticeable amount of height since his prime,but he looks 179-180 range more often than not with other celebs so my guess is he's 179 minimum 180 max these days.

Point is, I never think a 6ft2 inch individual barefoot is a 6ft4 inch individual with shoes on. Probably due to the fact that I dont walk around like Mahatma Gandihi....

But my point is that! People see arnie in public and say hes 6-2" etc etc etc...Yes in shoes! So he in truth is never 6-2" point and case.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Oct/16
186cm would be the absolute lowest I'd argue for this guy. But 6ft1½ looks fair. He could pull off 6ft2 as often as 6ft1 range. Anywhere between those is arguable.

HonestSlovene said on 30/Sep/16
Harold he was quite close to 6'2" at his peak and he probably did measure around this mark earlier in the day. He was most likely a weak 6'2/strong 6'1 guy and now more of a strong 5'11 guy. Vince Basile is legit.
HonestSlovene said on 30/Sep/16
Most likely a strong 6'1.5 peak but now he seems to be just a strong 5'11 so a 2 inch loss is a bit above average for his age but nothing drastic, more likely due to steroid abuse.
Harold said on 30/Sep/16
It interests me how the fanboys believe Arnie is just a little bit of a liar and not a big fat whopping liar. So the fanboys give him six foot one as his height (even though Arnie insisted on six foot two) for the majority of his life. Newsflash: the man has been caught lying and exaggerating again and again. The fact that he profited from lies and advanced his career from them doesn't make the lie the truth. It makes the liar successful as a liar and fraud. His business mentor, Joe Weider, never met a lie he didn't like and was fined, repeatedly, by the US government for intetional fraud. Deliberate deceit and media manipulation is what the "six foot two" malarkey has always, always been about. The fifty pairs of cowboy boots that Arnie admits are in his closet are there for a reason: to bump up, artificially, his height. Five eleven peak, if that. Five ten (or less) today. It's less about shrinkage than about lying about his height from day one. Pathetic.
WBK said on 30/Sep/16
I think the truth is that Arnold was about 6'1 as a young fellow - as he himself used to state in interviews before his Hollywood days (and even when he first started out in films). This got rounded up to 6'2 by the usual publicity machine, and just became a figure that he and the rest of the world stuck with ever since. he's lost a couple of inches since then (so maybe 5'11), and his posture isn't always great which can add the illusion of an inch or two less than that. Plus the expectation is that he's a gigantic mythical figure, and of course he isn't. He's a man. Only slightly above average height, and with a slightly stockier overall build. So therefore the first impression people have is that he's not as big as they would expect.
MAJID said on 29/Sep/16
First of all please bear in mind that looking at pics will not give u an accurate view of the persons height. Many times some people slouch when posing while some have a good posture. So you cant make a dead accurate guess looking at pics. As far as Arnold is concerned everyone knows that when they see him in real they are confused to see a much smaller man. Arnold may be in his peak would be 6 feet at max but now a days he is not more than 5 11. Even in the movies when he was in his 40s he never looked 6 feet 2 ( as he claims ).

Heres the deal. I stand at just over 6-2". People think Im 6-3/6-4". Why??? Its because if a legit 6-2" person in boots will look that height!! No one has ever said arnie is 6-3/6-4" which he would be if he was 6-2" flat. Think about it!!! People say hes 6-2" and lets be honest the footwear is defo always cowboy boots or boots. So imo he is approx 6-0.5" prime height.

Ok,i take my opinion back...there's also a video showing Arnold meeting some of the Barcelona players and getting a few pictures with them.Next to listed 173cm Neymar he looked near 180 with similar posture,maybe 179 at worst (5'10.5 range).When Arnold took a selfie along with Neymar though,he stood very loosely while Neyman basically stood well, i guess that's why they looked pretty similar height-wise on that photo.

yabadabadoo said on 23/Sep/16
180 when he was young is ridiculous, nowadays I agree. Google and you can see he looks 180-181 beside Neymar/Rafinha Alcantara/Javier Mascherano (footballers of F.C.Barcelona, officially 174cm all of them). I think he has lost much height, he looks compressed. My estimation in his youth: 187 morning, 185 night. In that case I'd say he was 186 and that's why he used to say I'm 6'2", a "lie" but not so far from the truth (with shoes on he was that tall).

If, in actual fact, Arnie was, as listed here, five foot eleven and 3/4's of an inch, that would make him around six foot one in present day in cowboy boots? He is nowhere near that height in present day. Time for an honest assessment of his current height and an updating that is within the realm of reality rather than schoolboy crush fantasy.

Nowadays he is under 5'11". I have seen him in the gym several times. I remember that I met him when he was still a governor and he looked 5'11"-5'11.5" but he was wearing his favorite brown cowboy style boots. From talking to people who had known him in his hey days, they all say that he was under 6'2" and more so between 6"-6'1". I have always pegged him at 184 in his prime with great posture and puffy hairstyle.
Voice of Reason said on 16/Sep/16
Apart from the odd off-the-wall whacko, someone who claims to have seen Arnold and towered above him because really he's only 5'6", and not even mentioning Harold with his never-ending supply of capes, Conan swords and fanboy taunts to scatter around like confetti he's got a warehouse full of.... apart from all of that I think the general agreement is that a peak Arnold was 6'1" and he's now 5'11".

Are there any fanboys left who actually believe little Arnie's lie that he was six foot one half inch in 2013? What you've got to admit is the man, however deluded (or is it calculatingly and deliberately deceiving) is consistent. Now, as to six foot and one half inch, do you think he means with cowboy boots and lifts therein, or do you think he means standing on a stepladder during the measurement? Oh, wait, Vince Basile must have measured him...

Shredder,

See below Pic. In Loken's Case I dont think her Hairline is much off her actual top of her head, for what ever reason. Maybe an 1/2" but her Hairline in Rob's Pic is only around 5'9, now compare that with her pic with Rob and she is lucky to get 5'10. Arnold was 5'10.75 at age 55 IMO based on his pics with her and 6'0 in his prime to me.

Jordan87 , I noticed that you are looking at the charts wrong , you are looking at where their hair line begins and not the actual top of their heads.

Loken 's hair is really adding nothing and she looks close to 5'11 , maybe a tad less might fit her. Patrick's hair starts at 5'10 but ends at barely 5'11 , I disagree with Rob and think Patrick is max 5'10.75 , I'll give you that.

As for Biehn I have no reason to lie about what I saw or upgrade or downgrade anybody. Biehn had more footwear over me and looked 6 ft and change , so he still would be around the listed height if I saw him in the same footwear as me. Come on now , why would Rob give him 5'11.75 if he thought he looked under 5'11?
Jordan87 said on 4/Sep/16
Shredder , I respectively disagree. Patrick doesn't look over 5'10 with rob ( taking into account that rob mentions Patrick has more footwear.

As far as loken goes , the top picture is what we should all go by since they have equal footwear. To me she doesn't look over 5'10 there , her hair gets her to like 5'10'.75.

As far as Mike bieghn , if he was 6'0 to you shredder I'm not calling you a liar , though you must agree he doesn't look 6 foot in robs pic ?
Shredder said on 4/Sep/16
Loken is at worst 5'10.5 to 5'11 , Patrick isn't over 5'11 now , but 5'10 is too low , Arnold was measured 6'1.5 in his prime , so minimum 6'1 " and Biehn face to face was closer to 6' . than 5'11 , let alone 5'10.5 and Rob agrees. You are way off on all of these Jordan.

Danimal,

A Picture is worth a Thousand words, much more then a Claim. Robert Patrick is 5'10, no taller. He is pictured with Rob at 5'10.5 on this site and Rob said Robert's footwear was 1/2" Thicker, So Robert Patrick is 5'10. Arnold is 1.25" taller than Him in the picture I posted. Yes he is a good deal younger in the pic then he is now, likely around 60yo. I cannot believe he shrank more then 2" at age 60. A Man his age ( In the Photo) Shrinks around 1" Tops. Arnold was maybe 6'0.25 in his prime. To argue for another inch Danimal is stupid but I am certainly ruling out that he was some vanilla 5'10 guy in his prime. No way I believe that. He was a tall man in his prime, hovering around 6 foot again I have him for a 5'11.5 to 6'0.5 range as a young man.

I would go what Arnold appears in pictures more than a guy who has claimed to have measured him. I never Got the impression Arnold was 6'1.5 in his prime.

Arnie is not taller than 5'10.5 today( late 60's). I believe he was 6'0 tall In his prime more or less. He was only 1/2" taller than 5'10ish kristanna loken when he was 55 years old. Could not have shrunk more than 1.5" by his mid 50's people sorry. He was right around 6 foot in his prime . Still tall.

Again, I don't know why people don't understand that he was measured in 1969 by a man who did not even like him and still doesn't to this day (Vince Basile). He measured him barefoot at night at 6'1.5".

Kristianna Loken is 5ft11, not 5ft10. And there's even a pic of her with Rob to prove it. So that would make Arnold 5ft11.5 at 55 yrs old. Please get your facts right first.

Ah, yes, because it would be incomprehensible to question the word/veracity of a steroid-using bodybuilder on another steroid-using bodybuilder on a supposed incident that supposedly took place 47 years ago. It's not as if Vince Basile is treated as a joke on every single bodybuilding website. Oh, wait... But I understand where you're coming from: Vince also refers to Arnold as a 'real he-man.'

I think an inch was added on by arnie in that last sentence. Really it should be : 'Arnold has also recently said that he was "6ft and 3/4" but now has shrunk to 6ft 0, as measured by his daughter and in 2013 mentioned he was down to a worrying 5ft 11.5 inch'. :P

Joking aside though i thought he looked a solid 6'1 at peak - probably would measure 1.86 range in the evening.

Arnold today is no more than 5'10 at best, i'm probably generous, and i don't believe he lost 3 or 4 inches of height since his younger days, that's absurd... Arnold was around 5'11 in his prime...

Danimal, in the first photo you've posted, Reg is leaning on one leg, so he is not at its tallest.

Maybe Arnold was an half a centimeter taller, but we are there.

As regards his hip replacement surgery is not officially documented, and even if it were, it would be only his right leg (look at his pictures of 2008 in Cancun, Mexico.

If you look at all the old photos of him standing next to Reg Park, you'll see that (with Park at 6ft 1''), that he was 6ft 0.5'' at best.
Danimal said on 21/Aug/16
Look how tiny/short/compressed Arnold looks today. His upper torso is so short and compressed and his legs are even shorter, possibly due to his hip replacement. He used to be a TALL looking man:

At his peak I don't think he ever dipped below 6'2", no matter what the time of day was. I could easily see him hitting or even slightly surpassing the 6'3" mark directly out of bed.

----------

Arnold at over 6ft3? Only in your dreams dude. In reality, he was no more than 187cm, and even that was his out of bed height. By nighttime, he would drop to 185cm. Usually I would agree with Rob's listings, but this is one of the few exceptions, just like Joe Manganiello's 6ft5 listing when I believe he's only 6ft4.5
Peter 179cm said on 20/Aug/16
@ MJKop You're delusional if you think he could hit 6'3 out of bed...If that was the case,he would eventually claim it instead of 6'2...

@Jared: he could have been brushing that mark first thing out of bed in his prime.
Jared said on 17/Aug/16
Rob, could a peak Arnold have woken up out of bed as 6ft2.5? The reason I ask is because bodybuilders tend to weigh more than the average person, thus putting more pressure on the spine, making it compress more throughout the day.
Editor Rob
if he was 6ft 1.5 at his low, then you certainly wouldn't rule out a chance of a full inch lost.
Brandon said on 15/Aug/16
I can tell you right now antman is not being serious, he is an obvious troll. Lol
Arnie was 6'0.75"-6'1" peak and is 5'11" today. He's like 70 years old and had done heavy weightlifting/bodybuilding for decades. 2 inches loss makes sense.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Aug/16
Rob, is it still safe to assume that Arnold held 6ft2 for a short while in the morning?
Editor Rob
I think he would have hit that mark for sure out of bed, but how much he cleared it is a question...if he is only a 186cm guy peak then he might not have been more, but if 6ft 1.5 then maybe a fraction more.

AlexMahone you really need to calm down we are talking about the heights of celebrities here not debating the existence of an afterlife. It doesn't really matter and is just an enjoyable discussion to me. And a persons height is a far simpler subject to deal with as you merely stand next to them and based on your own height are able to make a reasonable estimate. I do not care whether you believe me or not but I stood next to Dolph Lundgren at LLFC and 6ft was a reasonable estimate for his height. I also met Michael Emerson, Harold Perrineau and Carl Weathers and have confirmed their height estimates on their respective pages on here as accurate so I am not a troll, the most childish and pointless of internet pursuits. If you who have never met Dolph Lundgren think that looking at him in pictures with other people you have also never met makes your opinion more valid I am pleased for you. And I am unable to find any comment from me where I said Brandon Lee was 5ft 7. I said I did not know his height as I have never met him. Please re-read my comments.

@Antman: I didn't decided yet that you are a terrible height judger or a simple troll who self made causes why you downgrade celebs to ridiculous level. Please next time take a photo or a spy photo from Mr. Lundgren (for example) because now you have nothing in your hands. Except your words and we should believe you this nonsense. You downgrade Brandon Lee to the ridiculous 5'7" level because of the height difference between Lundgren and Brandon. If Lee was only 5'7" then you can argue for a 185cm Dolph. I think you are incapable of believing that there are people who taller than 6'3".
You saw for sure the promo pictures where Lundgren and Terry Crews are together. Dolph is TALLER in every single picture in similar dress shoes. I'm really curious what do you think, what is Terry Crews height? 5'8"? Wait, I think I forgot that Dolph wore 8cm lifts in his dress shoes....if nowadays he's only about 180cm....

You can argue for Lundgren lost heightand now he's about 6'2" but not 5'11"-6'.

(Excuse me I Know this is the Arnold forum but this guy wrote everywhere his claim...)
James B said on 9/Aug/16
In Kevin sorbos defense ex poster mamun mentioned that Arnie looked no taller than 5'10-5'11 when he met him in person but I guess his posture must be horrendous after all those years of seriously heavy weight lifting.
James B said on 9/Aug/16
Rob could have the 6'1.5 measurement been in shoes?

I remember Vegas mentioned that in 1998 6'4 billy gunn had at least 3 inches on Arnie who had on big heeled boots.

Although Arnold didn't look that much shorter than clint Eastwood in the early 90s (not impossible that Arnie wore lifts next to clint).
Sam said on 9/Aug/16
6'1 peak, he generally looked tall in movies. Fair dues he probably wasn't near 6'2 but why are so many people downgrading this legendary figure? It seems like lots of downgraders are attracted to Arnie's page for some reason. Where are you guys on Brad Pitts page? He does look noticeably shorter today though, but was tall in his prime.
jervis said on 9/Aug/16
So Antman,you put it down to Brandon being more 5ft9 range than Lundgren being 6ft4.If he was 5ft9 that would add up,but youre not going to get many people agreeing with you here.
Anthony said on 9/Aug/16
Agreed, Arnold in the last Terminator film being shown as 6'6 was pretty dumb. The Terminator was never intended to be a gigantic robot. It was an infiltration unit, not Ted Hughes's The Iron Man. Especially silly, as throughout Terminator Genisys Arnold was obviously not exceptionally tall when compared to other actors.
FrankR1 said on 8/Aug/16
Arnold's peak height had to be no more than 6' and 1/2" (184 cm). He looks up at Ultimate Warrior (Jim Hellwig) in a photo, and Warrior was between 6'2" and 6'2 and 1/2" at his absolute tallest. There's no way that Arnold was even 6'1." I find it "comical" that his T-800 character is depicted at 6'6".
Arch Stanton said on 8/Aug/16
Brandon Lee was 5'11.5 I think, Dolph was 6'4.5. About 5 inches as you say Jervis.
Arch Stanton said on 8/Aug/16
Saw Red Heat the other night, I'd forgotten how impressive Arnie looked in the 80s. Certainly looked every inch a Russian assassin type. About as chiselled looking as you can get.
Antman said on 8/Aug/16
Hi Jervis. I am not sure what height Brandon Lee was but as the son of 5ft 5 Bruce Lee - never the height of 5ft 7 he is always claimed to be - I would imagine nowhere near the 6ft I have seen him estimated. I know though that I am 5ft 9 and having stood next to Mr. Lundgren also know he is no taller than 6ft. He was wearing sneakers so had no obvious assist there. I think he was 6ft 1 at his peak and I have seen him in some clunky footwear over the years that would have boosted him close to his imaginary height of 6ft 4.
Jordan87 said on 8/Aug/16
Antman,

I always had Sly at around 5'8, no taller. Keep in mind years ago the 5'6.75 Glen was something like 1.5 inches shorter than Sly in their Miserable Picture together.

With Normal Shoes Sly was barely taller than Burt Young. Lundgren Does Claim 6'3 but to be honest on this site he is pictured with a 5'7.75 fella and is 6'2 TOPS!

Richarard E Grant is 6ft2 not 6ft4.If you watch the player he is about 3 to 4 inches shorter than Tim Robbins.

Lundgren is still nothing less than 6'2.5"-6'3". He still stands around an inch taller than Adam Copeland who Rob met and lists 6'2.5". I think more 6'2" flat.

Jeez guys go watch Showdown in Little Tokyo where he is barefoot next to Brandon Lee and Tia Carrere. He dwarfs her in heels ( she is 5ft 7 confirmed by Rob) and Lee was supposedly near 6ft. He can even pass for 6ft 5 at times in that film.

Lundgren himself claims 6'3" today and 6'4" range at peak.

I agree though with Van Damme, I have seen the guy and he looked short to me. He had a statue presented a few years back in Belgium. Life size 174 cm or 5ft 8.5".

I still think Arnie was 6ft 1 at peak and around the 5ft 11 mark nowadays.
Antman said on 6/Aug/16
Peter I stand by this estimate for Lundgren's peak height. Now he is barely 6ft and you don't lose all that height unless you have your foot removed! Watch Rocky IV particularly the Drago v Apollo fight. When both actors are fighting and the camera illusions are gone both guys look close in height. They certainly where when I met them recently. As for Stallone I met Mr T a few years ago and he was barely my height 5ft 9. He was 2 inches taller than Stallone in Rocky III! As for Arnold in Predator you can never judge height well in movies that are shot outdoors because of the uneven ground and also no way was Schwarzenegger gonna allow Weathers to look bigger than him. The clincher re Arnold's height is the movie Stay Hungry were Arnold looks 5ft 11 next to Jeff Bridges. Movie magic is so convincing it even fools the actors about their own height!
Peter 179cm said on 5/Aug/16
@Antman Weathers looked atleast 6'0 next to Rob,he was probably closer to legit 6'1 back in the 80's and Arnold looked about the same height in the Predator.Also Stallone might be 5'7 nowadays but he was certainly no less than 5'8 when he was younger.Lundgren on the other hand struggles to look even 6'2 these days,but in his prime he was a strong 6'3 maybe even near 6'4 with an impossing figure ( buffed with muscles and quite slim), 6'1 seems like a joke for him even now.I'm not sure on Van Damme though, i never believed his 5'10 claim-more like about 5'9 peak and around 5'8.5 now.
Peter 179cm said on 5/Aug/16
I bet if Rob updated Arnold's height to currently 5'10 and peak 5'11,Harold would be much satisfied lol...But seriously now,based on shown evidence i believe Rob is off by an inch with this listing... I mean it's more arguable Arnold was 183-184 peak rather than 186-187cm and closer to 178-179cm than 182 nowadays, and that's based on several pics on the net, aswell as clips.But that's just my personal opinion...
Jordan87 said on 5/Aug/16
Arnold is 5'10.5 today ( look at pics with him and joe mangeolo ( 6'4.5 with rob , look at his eye level and Arnold's height )

Arnie is not over 6 foot today he is about 5'10.5. He was 6'0, 6'0.5 in his prime . People that think he shrunk 4" are just as full of crap as the people who think his peak height was 5'10.

And why do certain people keep insisting that all bodybuilders pretend to be tall? Look back through history and right up to the present day to find examples of many bodybuilders who were very short or average height at most. It is not an industry that rewards height. So if Arnold was known as a tall guy back in his bodybuilding days then it's probably for the simple reason that he was.

Good post richie!

Antman said on 4/Aug/16
Having recently stood next to Dolph Lundgren and Carl Weathers I think I can now rank the peak heights of all the 80's action heroes through actual experience and comparison with pictures. Okay here goes; Stallone- 5ft 7, Van Damme - 5ft 8, Schwarzenegger- 5ft 11, Carl Weathers - 6ft, Lundgren - 6ft 1. I realise some of these might seem a little shocking but I am pretty sure they are accurate. The illusion of the movies and the imagination of the actors can be very convincing but seeing is believing.
richie said on 4/Aug/16
@Harold: Nah, the reality check is well and truly in your corner, bud. This isn't a personal issue more so a disagreement and there is simply no need for the patronising and condescending tone, school boy behaviour more like, someone should report you to the headmaster....Cowboy boots???? Schwarzenegger, unlike his counterparts Stallone, Van Damme, Norris, Reynolds, McQueen and yes the list is endless, was never a lift wearer as any guy standing over 6', which indeed Arnold did, would simply not feel the need for a boost. The evidence in Arnold's favour concerning his estimated height of 6'1"is overwhelming and there are simply too many scenarios to mention, i suggest you check out the pictures, of which there are many, the one with Clint Eastwood is pretty decent, shot back in 95', where Clint had probably stooped to 6'2", both himself and Schwarzenegger are pretty much identical in height and Jeff Bridges who was close to 6'3" back in the day, was only slighter taller than Arnie, who was incidentally bare foot in several of those scenes, so much for the lift theory.Fellow bodybuilders and Pumping Iron stars Ken Waller and Mike Katz, both of whom were 6', fell short in stature to the Austrian, the list really is endless, so this clearly has little to do with myself keeping it real but in truth your failure at being able to deal with the fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger, certainly during his peak years, was just shy of 6'2"....

There is a very recent photograph of Schwarzenegger locked in Predator style hand wrestle with fellow actor Carl Weathers, and the two actors were practically identical in height and Weathers is one of the few old school 70's actors who does not appear to have lost height and his estimated stature of 6'1" is very plausible, what does that tell you about Arnie's height ???? The Austrian actor is still over 6', not quite as tall as 30 years ago but certainly not as low as 5'11"

@Richie: unless he wore lifts like every time out in public he was around 6'1" legit and I'm the last person to upgrade someone (I know reality and right from wrong). But an older relative of mine met him and said they were the same exact or near the same height. So you have merit to your argument definitely. But on Harold's comment, I have to agree that his (of course not what he directed at you) comment has merit. Tons of people on this site inflate celebs just to make them fit their "fantasy" for them and then when you don't go along with it or state your opinion (usually within a cm or two they go ballistic). It's a stark reality that the majority of celebs on this site here (while they may have claimed a height repeatedly) are in fact claiming their shoe height and it's based on how they look with another inflators that people draw the conclusion and when they are shown up by someone claiming their true height, it's never that person A isn't as tall as they claim. It's that the honest person (person B) is downplaying themselves and is magically taller than they claim
richie said on 1/Aug/16
@Harold.... I'm not a fanboy and call it how i see it basically, neither do i purposely look to down grade an actors height to make myself feel more adequate. Rob's estimation of celebrity heights i believe is pretty accurate and i would agree with the majority of readings on this site. There is no doubting Schwarzenegger's peak height of 6'1.5", he shared the screen with many a tall actor during the 70/80's and more than held his own as he was indeed very close to 6'2", of course he has lost height today but lets be fair, the guy is almost 70 and most people have lost a good inch by that stage in their lives, probably standing close to 6' would be plausible, but certainly no less, as we saw in the recent Expendable outings he still towers Stallone by several inches and shades Willis who himself is close to 6',so the mentioning of 5'10/11" or less, is borderline ridiculous, get a grip......

Junior31,

I Live in Eastern Pennsylvania and to be honest I am a Legit 5'10.5 ( Been that way since high school) and most of my friends out here that are white males
( Mostly of PA Dutch, Polish and Irish Stock) are taller than I am. Even my sister's friends ( she is only 19) are taller than I am. Other night we had a House party, Combined 40 people ( id say around 32, 33 were white) and I was not one of the taller males there. I am 5'10.5. Most white males I see in Pennsylvania are taller than Myself.

I'm not sure about the average height for males in general for the planet, But these boys in PA must be corn-fed or something b/c most are over the 5'11 mark easily. My Father says that people were shorter back in his day. He was 5'11 in his youth and more often then not was the tallest male in the room. Nowadays he would fit right in with most white men I see ( younger generation 20-30).

@Kyuss123,

I have been saying he was around the 6 foot mark ( Prime)for awhile now and yes that Video would seem to support my Theory further. People also act like 6 foot isnt tall enough. Agree, Most modern Males I see in the 20-30 age group are in the 5'11-6'0 range but 30 years ago a legit 6 foot was tall and would stand out. Especially One with Arnol'ds build.

If we look Back at the Kristanna Loken Pics, he was 1.5 inches taller than her and clearny had 1" Shoe advantage so in reality he was around 1/2" taller then her when he was 56 years old making him 5'11ish. ( She is 5'10.5 Tops on this site pictured with Rob). I could see him loosing 3 inches by 56, hell not even now.

He was 5'11ish at age 56 and 6'0-6'0.5 Tops in his youth.



Wait what. Most modern males between 20-30 5'11 and 6'0? In what country. That average height is 2 inches or more shorter then that for the world. We are talking 30-40 years ago. Not an evolutionary century. A 6ft male stands out quite often because it's not average. I disagree with that. As for his height I can buy 6'0.5. I'm of the belief he was 6'1.

I don't see 6ft 2 there but if she is really 5ft 6.5 then a good 6ft 1 in his prime is definetly arguable. He has around 7 inches on her at 0.32. Draw the lines, her head is under his nose.

He is fully stretched out though while she isn't at full posture so 6ft 1 flat is still my guess.

@ Richie

a. the photo shows Carl Weathers to be taller.

b. the photo (crucially) shows no footwear.

The fanboys will do anything to cling to their illusion that their hero is over six foot . Anything. So we are to believe the five foot ten or so Arnie has shrunk, what, four inches from his billed, play pretend height of six foot two? And, according to the fanboys, we are to believe having open heart surgery reduces your height. Or, wait, is it torn rotator cuff surgery that reduces your height? Oh, now I've got it, it's bodybuilding itself which caused you to shrink when one lifts 'inordinate' amount of heavy weight (yo, if that were true, Kazmaier, 100X stronger than Arnie, would be about four foot two by now). Let's give Arnie the benefit of the doubt and say double hip replacement surgery means height loss, since his lifetime of 'health and fitness' has led to that, but four inches???!!!! The man is not 90. He's in his late 60's. And, to anyone in the bodybuilding world who knows, he hasn't lifted heavy since 1975 (his 1980 title was a one-off out of retirement) and zero heavy lifting since open heart surgery in the mid 1990's. Dream on fanboys. Not only was Arnie nowhere near six foot two in this lifetime, but you swallowed his height lie hook, line and sinker.

I confirm the feeling that Nubret was no taller than me.
Mike said on 21/Jul/16
It's common for body builders to shrink as much as a few inches. I personally shrank 3/4" due to 3 herniated discs. It happened from lifting inordinately large weights. I find it appalling that people still feel like they have the right to pick on others. I assume they have shortcomings that attack their psychological well being and this is the cause. I hope they find help and feel better without causing others disharmony.

Keep In Mind guys like Prowse and Hogan have lost around 3" but they were much taller than Arnold to start with. Average guy Arnold age looses around 1". Arnold to loose an extra 2" more than the average guy is a little hard to believe. I can see Maybe a 1.5" Loss for Arnold, which would put him at my 6 foot peak estimate.


Agree with Danimal roddy piper was a real 6'1 and went all the way down to 5'9.5. It's not common to lose that much height but it's also not common to have multiple surgeries on areas of the body that contribute solely to posture and height. but Check the rap sheet of surgeries and where on the body they had them and it's more then possible. The Arnold today is a shell of the man in he 70's and 80's. He looks like a relative of himself, an old uncle from Austria. Personally can't stand the guy but height is height.

Danimal is right, Nubret claimed 180 cm many times in the past.

Nubret wasn't 6ft, hes got also 5'10" listings
Imo he was 179 +- 1cm

Nubret used to post on getbig.com and he stated that his true height used to be 5'11" even though he was listed at 6'0" (in Pumping Iron).

@ Jack Daniil Ok that's pushing it a little far... Because then Ferrigno would be just 6'1 back then,whereas he looked around 188 next to Rob,atleast 40 years LATER... I don't think time-travelling was possible yet,even if now,to support a height argument...lmaao
